Do we blame all this snow on Global Warming?

I used to drive regularly in snow, and remember having to follow vehicle tracks in the snow to stay on the road.

Followed them (the tracks) into a rest area with a fully loaded commuter bus -

Take care, all who are travelling - Drive safely.

Van,

What do you do in Vegas? I lived there from 03-06. The wife and I do miss it from time to time. I was the General Manager for Cobalt Boats of LV in Henderson. They have since closed the store there as of the first of this year. Along with several other boat and RV dealers, Cal,s and Marine Max. The economy sure hit hard there.

Take care,
Bryan

I dont envy any of you northerners one bit.

We live in Colorado Springs for about 12 yrs, ti we got some sense and moved back south.

If it gets below 60, it is too cold.

yall stay safe and warm tho.

Yes indeed. I have been a delivery driver(Milwaukee/Waukesha WI. area) for over 24 years now and I'm used to it since I have seen just about every kind of weather there is although I have yet to see a tornado in person. I probably will at some point. As long as you have good tires, you should be ok.
I will pray for you and your wife.

And very windy too, John....(here anyways).

I just got new Wrangler Authority tires on my truck. So far, I love them. Two wheel drive truck, everything is either snow packed, or a glaze, and no problems (of course, if our city would get with the program, we wouldn't have any issues

). Kinda funny, they were 150 a tire, and people thought that was expensive. I thought they were cheap...Why? Because we bought bus tires not to long ago

God bless,

John

I'm still waiting for someone to adopt me and get me out of here, -26F actual temp and -45 or so with the wind but not much snow up here. Cody the area you live in is actually very beautiful with all that snow, but I still hate the cold. Maybe next year our ship will come in and we can point that big ol girl south for a few months.

We are experiencing that front right now.

Glad I decided to wear a t-shirt under my regular clothes as it dipped to 69 during the day.

Forget it if I add the wind chill to that........

The temps are supposed to drop down to 54 degrees tonight. Brrrrrrrrr.

The storm has passed thru our area, now it's about 2F and we ended up with a couple of feet of snow but not too bad, now we can get on with winter lol.

Van · December 10, 2009, 06:11:56 PM

It is substantially colder here, and that is good I love the cold, so long as we don't have a reappearance of last years freak weather (10 inch's snow)which turned my 15 minute drive into a 6 hr slide show

Len Silva · December 10, 2009, 06:39:05 PM

Yeah, I understand, this cold weather is a bitch. My pool has dropped under 80 degrees, too cold for me to swim.

cody · December 10, 2009, 07:14:18 PM
